According to 2013 statistics, China ranks number 1 in use of mobile phone. USA ranks 3rd and Philippines ranks 12th. No wonder, a lot of us Filipino are addicted to mobile phone. From the time you wake up, when you go to school/work, when you eat, when you take a bath until you go to bed, your always holding your phone (mas madalas mo pa ngang hawak yang phone mo kaysa kamay ng bf/gf mo! umamin ka. kung di ka aamin, sige na ikaw na magpatuloy nitong blog ko! just kidding! XD). I will not be surprised if you know your phone more than your loved ones.
Having said that, I'm sure on your phone you'll see this , G, E, 3G, H+ and 4G. But have you ever wonder what those letters and numbers mean? The image above, explains it well.
G stands for General packet radio service (GPRS) which has a speed of up to 128kbps , E stands for Enhanced GPRS with speeds of up to 384 kbps. H is for high speed packet access, H+ is evolved high speed packet access and LTE stands for long term evolution with speeds of up to 170Mbps. So next time, you'll know if you are connected to a slow or fast internet speed by just looking at the letters and numbers beside the signal indicator on your mobile phone. (tandaan mo na yang mga terms para may pang tweet ka na! haha)
Did you know that the 4G Pocket Wifi from Smart and Globe is not really 4G but only 3.5G?
